专题03 七选五 （一） （2025年岳阳市一模） I used to think the whole purpose of life was pursuing happiness. Everyone said the path to happiness was success, so I searched for the most ideal job and beautiful apartment. ____16____. And I wasn’t alone; my friends — they struggled with this, too. Eventually, I decided to go to graduate school to study positive psychology and learn what truly makes people happy. What I discovered there is that what really makes people happy is having meaning in life. So this all made me wonder: How can we each live more meaningful? ____17____ Bringing it all together, I found that there are what I call three pillars (支柱) of a meaningful life. The first pillar is belonging. True belonging comes from love. For many people, belonging is the most important source of meaning, those bonds with family and friends. For others, the key to meaning is the second pillar: purpose. Now, finding your purpose is not the same thing as finding a job that makes you happy. The key to purpose is using your strength to serve others. Of course, for many of us, that happens through work. ____18____ The third pillar of meaning, I’ve found, tends to surprise people. That is storytelling, the story you tell yourself about yourself. Creating a narrative from the events of your life brings clearness. It helps you understand how you became you. ____19____. You can edit, interpret and retell your story, even as you’re constrained by the facts. ____20____. But when life is really good or when things are really bad, having meaning gives you something to hold on to. A. Happiness lies in success B. Happiness comes and goes C. Your life isn’t just a list of events D. That’s how we contribute and feel needed E. But instead of ever feeling fulfilled, I felt anxious F.

A few years ago, I was lucky enough to experience all these on a reef dive at the Gili Islands in Indonesia. After my first dive, I realized that it has far more in common with yoga than it does with extreme sports. On land, switching off your brain can be a struggle. Breathing is something that just happens without thinking. ___36___When you’re diving, it’s a totally different ball game. You’re suddenly aware of how your movements connect with each intake of breath. It’s hard to feel distracted (分神的) when diving. Nature is putting on such a show-stopping performance that your attention is fully absorbed. You’re right there on the stage, in the moment. ___37___ Something I hadn’t really considered before my first scuba dive was just how human-centric our lives are on land. Everything seems to go around the human experience. But when you dive, it’s a different story entirely. ___38___ A guest in someone else’s home. ___39___ Almost everything in front of you is alive and part of a delicate ecosystem of life.

When handling a tough situation, you may need some extra help. Connect with people that have gone through the same trials as you have. During the interactions, you will notice the different patterns which made them successful. ____38____ Their experiences are beneficial to uplifting your spirit and truly help you out. Another amazing approach is to make sensible and favorable choices for yourself. Engaging in battles and struggles is going to be very hard. ____39____ Picture your goals in your mind and make sensible steps towards them with each passing day.

IU doesn’t directly cause all of those conditions, but having a higher intolerance for uncertainty is a common experience that cuts across them. ____37____ It makes them stressed, irritable or anxious and they are motivated to avoid it at all costs, or control their environments to reduce uncertainty as much as possible. This can manifest in overplanning, repeated reassurance or information-seeking and avoiding anything new or unfamiliar. Some with high IU might make lists repeatedly or plan out conversations in their head. People with high IU can also react to events more impulsively in order to resolve uncertainty as quickly as possible. ____38____ For milder discomfort with uncertainty that doesn’t cause significant distress or disruption to life, people can build their own tolerance to uncertainty a little bit each day. ____39____ Then, after experimenting with small exposures to uncertainty, challenge yourself to do other new things-nothing big or scary, just things that are different and will initially feel uncomfortable. ____40____ They can even accept and perhaps embrace uncertainty in day-to-day life.

Not only do Olympic athletes tone their bodies into near perfection, but they sharpen their minds as well. ____16____. Researchers have found Olympians share some common habits that you too can use to develop a winner’s mindset. View stress as positive. Many successful Olympians view stress as a challenge instead of something they should fear. A previous experiment published looked at how people viewed stress. It found the risk of premature death rose by 43% for people who viewed stress negatively. ____17____. Get rid of self-doubt. There is no room for doubt in the minds of Olympic athletes. They have to believe they’re capable of performing well or they have already given the competition the advantage. ____18____, because they have spent much time practicing their performance and learning from failures along the way. Stay focused on the process. ____19____. It’s important to identify any triggers (起因) you might face and experience those during practice until they fade into the background. Athletes have to be prepared for distractions such as crowd noise, someone laughing, even a joke told nearby. ____20____.

Schools require it for graduation, colleges ask about it in applications, and even employers increasingly inquire about it. This trend appears uplifting, because more volunteers mean stronger nonprofits. But I’ve realized there’s a problem: ____36____ I’ve encountered students who talk about volunteering like it’s a competition. They declare involvement with charity organizations proudly, only to reveal astonishing gaps when questioned further. “I did 100 hours,” one might say, yet struggles to explain the missions of the organizations. ____37____ When did helping others become about counting hours instead of making a difference? True service isn’t measured in hours or reduced to strategic career moves. ____38____ Imagine helping build a wheelchair ramp (坡道) for an elderly neighbor so they can leave their house. Or teaching math to kids who can’t afford tutors because you noticed they were struggling. At its core, meaningful service demands emotional investment — the willingness to center others’ wellbeing above personal gain. Reforming this system requires fundamentally rethinking how we evaluate commitment. Colleges and employers must shift from quantitative checkboxes to qualitative assessments. Instead of asking “How many hours did you serve?”, applications might inquire: “What social challenge moved you to act?” or “____39____” ____40____ Volunteer because it is the right thing to do as a human being. If we care more about why we help instead of how much we help, community service can become what it’s meant to be — people working together to make the world a little kinder, one small act at a time. A. It’s definitely about caring. B. This makes me really upset. C. Don’t volunteer because you have to. D. It is determined by who we offer help to. E. How did your service meet the needs of your community? F. How many times a year did you volunteer for charity work? G. When we treat kindness like an assignment, are we really being kind? （八） （2025年常德一模） Anyone with an internet connection can watch breaking news, or at least some version of it. Across social media, posts can fly up faster than most fact-checkers can handle, and they are often an unpredictable mix of true, fake, and out of context. ____16____ How do you know what to trust and what not to share? Here are some basic tools everyone should use when consuming breaking news online. ____17____ Think about who would benefit from spreading confusing information during a news event. During elections, for example, look out for conflicting information and baseless accusations that may benefit one political party or candidate. Of course, not all misinformation is serious. Some is created just for fun or to troll (恶搞) people, so be as skeptical of silly stories as serious ones. Slow down while reading or watching. Social media is built for things to go viral, for users to quickly share before they are even done reading the words. No matter how shocking, enlightening or annoying a TikTok or YouTube video is, you must wait before passing it on to your network. ____18____ That’s because they are waiting until information is confirmed and accurate. So assume everything is suspect until you confirm its authenticity (真实性). Don’t use AI to get news. Tech companies are pushing their voice assistants and AI chatbot tools as a way to get the latest news. ____19____ They can be incorrect, out of date or simply copying words from sources with little credit or visibility. Some chatbots even have started adding disclaimers (免责申明) around breaking news events, advising readers to look elsewhere for new information. ____20____ A. Know why misinformation exists. B. News outlets may seem slower than social media. C. Question why you want to share it in the first place. D. Do not rely on these features for accurate information. E. Do a Google search for the person or organization’s name. F. So going directly to news sources will ensure you get more accurate information. G. The rapid spread of easily accessible AI tools is mudding the waters even further. （九） （2025年普通高中名校联考信息卷一模） How to think outside the box Thinking creatively often involves more than just considering opposing viewpoints. ____36____ A break in our daily routine can offer the necessary push to change our thought patterns. ____37____ We can change our surroundings, for instance, by rearranging our workspace or trying a different path to commute. For some, though, more significant changes such as starting a new job or getting married might be necessary. A well-known approach is to tackle everyday situations as if experiencing them for the first time. In essence, we should examine them as if they were entirely novel to us. ____38____ For example, when brushing our teeth, pause to observe the toothbrush as if it were an unfamiliar object, noting its color and shape. Consider the taste of the toothpaste and pay attention to the sensation in our mouth as we brush. ____39____ The simple fact of having a group of individuals with varied experiences perspectives, and backgrounds in our daily life fosters an environment where people are more adaptable to change. Why? Because they are essential catalysts for the creation of new ideas and solutions. Unlike negative emotions that start specific responses (such as fear driving us to escape), positive emotions expand our focus, encourage exploration of our surroundings, and make us more receptive to new information. ____40____ They can be aspects of our life that are currently going well or thing we are thankful for. This transition to a more positive mindset will naturally lift our spirits—and liberate our thinking. A. It’s also helpful to seek for the difference. B. For some people, small changes might work. C. We should show respect for different cultures too. D. Some small techniques could help broaden the way we think. E. Take a few moments to think about the beautiful things in our life. F. Positive emotions play an important part in unfreezing our thinking. G. “Beginners’ mind” develops openness to experiences, despite early knowledge. （十） （2025年株洲一模） Intuition（直觉力）is a survival skill that assists you in avoiding danger and making new discoveries. Tuning into your intuition can enable you to understand yourself better. 36 Intuition is a quiet voice within your mind that tells you when something is right or wrong. It’s also known as a “gut feeling”— for example when you know you’ ll be friends with someone before you’ve even spoken to them. Author Beatrice Moise describes intuition as “an awareness of your senses, the feeling of butterflies in your stomach or suddenly being aware of your heartbeat or breathing”. Intuition occurs when your brain compares what’s going on around you with experiences stored in your memories. 37 This explains why you occasionally make speedy decisions that appear from nowhere. 38 Listening to your intuition and gut feelings involves trusting your judgement. This helps you by building confidence, which makes it easier to face challenges and discover what you’re good at. Trusting your gut feelings means you can recognize when people or places make you uncomfortable and helps keep you safe. 39 Therefore, only take a chance on things that are safe and familiar, like choosing fun ingredients for a cake. You should have a full recognition of your intuition, which means paying attention to what your body feels and what your head thinks. Try noticing how your body behaves when you’ re delighted, like going on holiday or seeing friends. This can help guide you in making decisions. 40 Did you have any feelings that things weren’t going your way? If something makes you feel tense or uncomfortable, don’t do it or wait until you have time to think it through properly. A. How does your intuition help you? B. How can you make others trust your intuition? C. It can also help you discover what you’re good at. D. These can help correct all the wrong decisions you made. E.

However, like any decision you make, your intuition won’t always be right. （十一） （2025年张家界一模） Most people agree that college is the time when things change the most in their lives.

Everyone said the path to happiness was success, so I searched for the most ideal job and beautiful apartment.(我曾经认为生活的全部目的就是追求幸福。每个人都说通往幸福的道路是成功，所以我寻找了最理想的工作和漂亮的公寓。)”及下文“And I wasn’t alone; my friends - they struggled with this, too. Eventually, I decided to go to graduate school to study positive psychology and learn what truly makes people happy. What I discovered there is that what really makes people happy is having meaning in life. (我并不孤单；我的朋友们——他们也在为此挣扎。最终，我决定去研究生院学习积极心理学，学习真正让人快乐的东西。我发现，真正让人快乐的是生活中的意义。)”可知，上文提到作者曾经认为生活的目的是追求幸福，并努力去实现，下文描述学习真正让人快乐的东西，空处应承接上文说明不幸福这一结果，E选项“But instead of ever feeling fulfilled, I felt anxious(但我非但没有感到满足，反而感到焦虑)”说明作者虽然努力去追求幸福，但是结果并不如意，反而感到焦虑，于是下文开始探索有意义的生活是什么样的。故选E。 【17题详解】 由上文“So this all made me wonder: How can we each live more meaningful?(所以这让我很好奇：我们怎样才能活得更有意义呢？)”可知，上文提出“我们怎样才能活得更有意义呢？”这一问题，空处为本段尾句，说明作者为了解答这一问题而采取的行动，F选项“To find out, I interviewed hundreds of people and read thousands of books (为了找出答案，我采访了数百人，阅读了数千本书)”符合题意，说明作者通过采访和阅读书籍来寻找答案。故选F。 【18题详解】 由上文“Now, finding your purpose is not the same thing as finding a job that makes you happy. The key to purpose is using your strength to serve others.

That is storytelling, the story you tell yourself about yourself. Creating a narrative from the events of your life brings clearness. It helps you understand how you became you. (我发现，意义的第三大支柱往往会让人惊讶。那就是讲故事，即你讲给自己的关于自己的故事。从生活中的事件中构建一个叙事，能让你变得清晰明了。它有助于你理解自己是如何成为现在的自己的。)”可知，上文提到叙事有助于理解自我，空处应承接上文继续说明生活事件和故事之间的关系，且强调生活不只是一系列事件，而是可以被赋予意义的故事。C选项“Your life isn’t just a list of events(你的生活不仅仅是一系列事件)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选C。 【20题详解】 由下文“But when life is really good or when things are really bad, having meaning gives you something to hold on to.

A few years ago, I was lucky enough to experience all these on a reef dive at the Gili Islands in Indonesia. After my first dive, I realized that it has far more in common with yoga than it does with extreme sports. On land, switching off your brain can be a struggle. Breathing is something that just happens without thinking. ___36___When you’re diving, it’s a totally different ball game. You’re suddenly aware of how your movements connect with each intake of breath. It’s hard to feel distracted (分神的) when diving. Nature is putting on such a show-stopping performance that your attention is fully absorbed. You’re right there on the stage, in the moment. ___37___ Something I hadn’t really considered before my first scuba dive was just how human-centric our lives are on land. Everything seems to go around the human experience. But when you dive, it’s a different story entirely. ___38___ A guest in someone else’s home. ___39___ Almost everything in front of you is alive and part of a delicate ecosystem of life. Here, clownfish weave among the anemones (海葵) and parrotfish feed on their favorite coral (珊瑚). ___40___ Nothing is ours to take or touch.

IU doesn’t directly cause all of those conditions, but having a higher intolerance for uncertainty is a common experience that cuts across them. ____37____ It makes them stressed, irritable or anxious and they are motivated to avoid it at all costs, or control their environments to reduce uncertainty as much as possible. This can manifest in overplanning, repeated reassurance or information-seeking and avoiding anything new or unfamiliar. Some with high IU might make lists repeatedly or plan out conversations in their head. People with high IU can also react to events more impulsively in order to resolve uncertainty as quickly as possible. ____38____ For milder discomfort with uncertainty that doesn’t cause significant distress or disruption to life, people can build their own tolerance to uncertainty a little bit each day. ____39____ Then, after experimenting with small exposures to uncertainty, challenge yourself to do other new things-nothing big or scary, just things that are different and will initially feel uncomfortable. ____40____ They can even accept and perhaps embrace uncertainty in day-to-day life. Life will always be full of unknowns. When facing the uncertain, people might feel discomfort, but there’s also a chance to try to feel curious and open. A. Analyze your need for certainty. B.

Schools require it for graduation, colleges ask about it in applications, and even employers increasingly inquire about it. This trend appears uplifting, because more volunteers mean stronger nonprofits. But I’ve realized there’s a problem: ____36____ I’ve encountered students who talk about volunteering like it’s a competition. They declare involvement with charity organizations proudly, only to reveal astonishing gaps when questioned further. “I did 100 hours,” one might say, yet struggles to explain the missions of the organizations. ____37____ When did helping others become about counting hours instead of making a difference? True service isn’t measured in hours or reduced to strategic career moves. ____38____ Imagine helping build a wheelchair ramp (坡道) for an elderly neighbor so they can leave their house. Or teaching math to kids who can’t afford tutors because you noticed they were struggling. At its core, meaningful service demands emotional investment — the willingness to center others’ wellbeing above personal gain. Reforming this system requires fundamentally rethinking how we evaluate commitment. Colleges and employers must shift from quantitative checkboxes to qualitative assessments. Instead of asking “How many hours did you serve?”, applications might inquire: “What social challenge moved you to act?” or “____39____” ____40____ Volunteer because it is the right thing to do as a human being. If we care more about why we help instead of how much we help, community service can become what it’s meant to be — people working together to make the world a little kinder, one small act at a time. A. It’s definitely about caring. B. This makes me really upset. C. Don’t volunteer because you have to. D. It is determined by who we offer help to. E. How did your service meet the needs of your community? F. How many times a year did you volunteer for charity work? G. When we treat kindness like an assignment, are we really being kind? 【答案】36. G 37. B 38. A 39. E 40. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了社区服务的现状和问题，并提出了一些改进的建议。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Today, community service often feels like something you have to do, not something you want to do. Schools require it for graduation, colleges ask about it in applications, and even employers increasingly inquire about it. This trend appears uplifting, because more volunteers mean stronger nonprofits.(如今，社区服务往往感觉是你必须做的事情，而不是你想做的事情。学校要求毕业时必须做，大学在申请时会问，甚至雇主也越来越多地询问。这一趋势看起来令人振奋，因为更多的志愿者意味着更强的非营利组织。)”和空前“But I’ve realized there’s a problem.(但是我意识到有一个问题。)”可知，上下文之间存在转折关系，且下文引出了问题，所以空白处应承接下文，指出问题所在。选项G“当我们把善良当作一项任务时，我们真的是在行善吗？”指出了把社区服务当作必须完成的任务这一问题，引出下文，符合语境。故选G。 【37题详解】 根据上文“They declare involvement with charity organizations proudly, only to reveal astonishing gaps when questioned further. “I did 100 hours,” one might say, yet struggles to explain the missions of the organizations.(他们自豪地宣称自己参与了慈善组织，但当被进一步询问时，却暴露出了惊人的差距。“我做了100个小时，”有人可能会说，但却难以解释这些组织的使命。)”可知，一些学生虽然参与了志愿服务，但却对志愿服务的组织和使命不了解，这让作者感到沮丧。选项B“这让我真的很沮丧”符合语境。故选B。 【38题详解】 根据上文“True service isn’t measured in hours or reduced to strategic career moves.(真正的服务不是以小时来衡量，也不是简化为战略性的职业变动。)”和下文“Imagine helping build a wheelchair ramp for an elderly neighbor so they can leave their house. Or teaching math to kids who can’t afford tutors because you noticed they were struggling. At its core, meaningful service demands emotional investment — the willingness to center others’ wellbeing above personal gain.(想象一下，帮助一位年长的邻居建造一个轮椅坡道，这样他们就可以离开自己的房子。或者因为你注意到孩子们在挣扎，就给那些请不起家教的孩子教数学。从根本上说，有意义的服务需要情感投入——愿意把他人的福祉置于个人利益之上。)”可知，真正的服务不在于时长，而在于对他人的关怀和帮助。选项A“这绝对是关于关怀”承上启下，符合语境。故选A。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Instead of asking “How many hours did you serve?”, applications might inquire: “What social challenge moved you to act?” or…(申请时，不要问“你服务了多少小时？”，而是可以问：“是什么社会挑战促使你采取行动？”或者……”。)”可知，此处列举了一些除了问志愿服务时长之外的问题，这些问题应更侧重于志愿服务的实质。选项E“你的服务是如何满足社区需求的？”是一个与志愿服务实质相关的问题，符合语境。故选E。 【40题详解】 根据下文“Volunteer because it is the right thing to do as a human being.(做志愿者是因为这是作为一个人应该做的事情。)”可知，做志愿者是出于本心，而不是因为必须去做。选项C“不要因为你必须去做而去做志愿者”引出下文，符合语境。故选C。 （八） （2025年常德一模） Anyone with an internet connection can watch breaking news, or at least some version of it. Across social media, posts can fly up faster than most fact-checkers can handle, and they are often an unpredictable mix of true, fake, and out of context. ____16____ How do you know what to trust and what not to share? Here are some basic tools everyone should use when consuming breaking news online. ____17____ Think about who would benefit from spreading confusing information during a news event. During elections, for example, look out for conflicting information and baseless accusations that may benefit one political party or candidate. Of course, not all misinformation is serious. Some is created just for fun or to troll (恶搞) people, so be as skeptical of silly stories as serious ones. Slow down while reading or watching. Social media is built for things to go viral, for users to quickly share before they are even done reading the words. No matter how shocking, enlightening or annoying a TikTok or YouTube video is, you must wait before passing it on to your network. ____18____ That’s because they are waiting until information is confirmed and accurate. So assume everything is suspect until you confirm its authenticity (真实性). Don’t use AI to get news. Tech companies are pushing their voice assistants and AI chatbot tools as a way to get the latest news. ____19____ They can be incorrect, out of date or simply copying words from sources with little credit or visibility. Some chatbots even have started adding disclaimers (免责申明) around breaking news events, advising readers to look elsewhere for new information. ____20____ A. Know why misinformation exists. B. News outlets may seem slower than social media. C. Question why you want to share it in the first place. D. Do not rely on these features for accurate information. E. Do a Google search for the person or organization’s name. F. So going directly to news sources will ensure you get more accurate information. G.

Consider the taste of the toothpaste and pay attention to the sensation in our mouth as we brush. ____39____ The simple fact of having a group of individuals with varied experiences perspectives, and backgrounds in our daily life fosters an environment where people are more adaptable to change. Why? Because they are essential catalysts for the creation of new ideas and solutions. Unlike negative emotions that start specific responses (such as fear driving us to escape), positive emotions expand our focus, encourage exploration of our surroundings, and make us more receptive to new information. ____40____ They can be aspects of our life that are currently going well or thing we are thankful for.

Tuning into your intuition can enable you to understand yourself better. 36 Intuition is a quiet voice within your mind that tells you when something is right or wrong. It’s also known as a “gut feeling”— for example when you know you’ ll be friends with someone before you’ve even spoken to them. Author Beatrice Moise describes intuition as “an awareness of your senses, the feeling of butterflies in your stomach or suddenly being aware of your heartbeat or breathing”. Intuition occurs when your brain compares what’s going on around you with experiences stored in your memories. 37 This explains why you occasionally make speedy decisions that appear from nowhere. 38 Listening to your intuition and gut feelings involves trusting your judgement. This helps you by building confidence, which makes it easier to face challenges and discover what you’re good at. Trusting your gut feelings means you can recognize when people or places make you uncomfortable and helps keep you safe. 39 Therefore, only take a chance on things that are safe and familiar, like choosing fun ingredients for a cake. You should have a full recognition of your intuition, which means paying attention to what your body feels and what your head thinks. Try noticing how your body behaves when you’ re delighted, like going on holiday or seeing friends. This can help guide you in making decisions. 40 Did you have any feelings that things weren’t going your way? If something makes you feel tense or uncomfortable, don’t do it or wait until you have time to think it through properly. A. How does your intuition help you? B. How can you make others trust your intuition? C. It can also help you discover what you’re good at. D. These can help correct all the wrong decisions you made. E. It creates a feeling so fast that you often don’t even notice it. F. Similarly, focus on how you think when you’ve made a bad choice. G. However, like any decision you make, your intuition won’t always be right. 【答案】 36. A 37. E 38. A 39. G 40.
